SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Understanding and Controlling the Interactions of Plasmas with Flames and Flowing Gases
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nElectrical discharges in aerospace applications occur in complex\, nonuniform environments featuring reactive and flowing gases. Understanding and controlling these plasmas requires a multiphysics approach and consideration of the coupling between plasma and its environment.  One example is use of pulsed nanosecond discharges in plasma-assisted combustion. To combat climate change\, reducing emissions of CO2 and NOₓ is critical. Pulsed nanosecond discharges have proven effective in stabilizing lean flames and mitigating combustion instabilities under lean conditions\, which help minimize thermal NOₓ formation. However\, the interplay between flame and plasma presents ongoing challenges. This presentation will explore experimental and theoretical investigations into these two-way coupled interactions for fundamental and industry-relevant flames. Another example involves discharges in non-reactive\, flowing gas environments\, such as lightning arcs attaching to aircraft in flight or wind turbine blades. During the damaging current flow phase\, an aircraft can travel ten times its length\, causing the arc to interact with the fluid boundary layer and reattach to new locations (the swept stroke phase). Understanding the interplay between flow physics and electrical breakdown is essential for developing lightning protection systems. We will review experiments and models to address these interactions.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nCarmen Guerra-Garcia is the Charles Stark Draper Assoc. Professor of Aero-nautics and Astronautics (A&A) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, where she leads the Aerospace Plasma Group at the intersection of aerospace engineering\, low temperature plasma technologies\, and gas discharge physics. She majored in Aeronautical Engr. at Polytechnic Univ. of Madrid (Spain) and obtained her SM and PhD in A&A from MIT. Prior to joining MIT\, Guerra-Garcia was with the Boeing Research and Technology Europe and a visiting researcher at Princeton Universi-ty. Guerra-Garcia has received NSF CAREER Award (2024)\, Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award (2021) Intl. Fulbright Science and Technology Award (2009)\, Junior Bose Award for Excellence in Teaching (2024) and Earll M. Murman Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Advising (2021). She is a member of the APS Gaseous Electronics Conference Exec. Committee and the AIAA Plasmady-namics and Lasers Technical Committee. Guerra-Garcia’s research spans from interaction of lightning with aircraft and wind turbines\, to plasma technologies for ignition\, combustion\, and chemical con-version.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person and simulcast via Zoom: https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2425.php#winter2025

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gilbert S. Omenn Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics - Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe are interested in deciphering RNA-protein networks in cells\, which are the result of interactions between RNA sequence/structural features and dynamic populations of RNA-binding proteins. These networks drive essential biological functions and are implicated in various diseases. To illuminate features that mediate the function and dysfunction of RNA molecules\, we employ a suite of technologies known as mutational profiling (MaP) experiments. In MaP\, reactive chemical probes mark RNA molecules where a measured event takes place\, for example protein binding\, RNA folding\, or small molecule interaction. The locations of these marks on RNA can be encoded as “mutations” during reverse transcription and read out by massively parallel sequencing. The original native cellular context of the chemically probed RNA can be reconstructed from MaP sequencing computationally.\n\nUsing MaP technologies\, we have defined features of RNA responsible for a variety of biology\, including sequences and structures mediating RNA localization\, assembly into complexes\, and disease activity. We are further developing the technology for identification of RNA-binding protein interactions and small-molecule-interacting sites on RNAs transcriptome-wide.\n\nBy mapping the uncharted landscapes of RNA-protein networks\, our research provides a foundation for understanding new RNA biology and for advancing RNA-targeted therapeutic interventions.\n\nBio:\nChase grew up in the Midwest\, moving between suburbs of Milwaukee and Chicago. Chase’s parents work for a family business that sells materials storage and handling solutions for factories and warehouses around the Midwest (think forklifts and automated shelving). While Chase did have some odd jobs with the family business when he was younger\, given the opportunity to pursue his own interests and inspired by a number of science teachers\, Chase decided to pursue a degree in Biochemistry at the University of Rochester in New York. \n\nThere\, Chase discovered a now long-time interest in RNA biology: Chase’s first research experience explored mechanisms of codon bias during mRNA translation in a yeast model with Beth Grayhack. Chase then pursued a Ph.D. in Biological Chemistry at the University of Michigan\, where he studied the mechanism of mRNA regulation by RNA-binding proteins in a Drosophila cell model with Aaron Goldstrohm. Chase then performed postdoctoral training in the Department of Chemistry at the University of North Carolina with Kevin Weeks\, where Chase integrated chemical probing strategies and next-gen sequencing to study long noncoding RNAs in human biology and disease. After a short stint as a postdoc and staff scientist at Washington University in St. Louis pursuing proximity labeling proteomics technologies\, Chase ultimately returned to the University of Michigan Department of Biological Chemistry as a Faculty Scholar of the Center for RNA Biomedicine and an Affiliate Faculty Member of the Center for Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics.  His lab is interested in how RNA-protein interaction networks govern biology and disease.\n\nThroughout his career\, Chase has had the support of NIH training grants during his Ph.D. and postdoctoral training\, an American Cancer Society Postdoctoral Fellowship\, an NCI K22 Career Transition Award\, and is currently supported by an NIGMS R01. Among honors Chase has received\, he is most proud of a recent student-nominated Outstanding Faculty Mentor Award given to him by the University of Michigan Cellular and Molecular Biology graduate program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Probability and Analysis Seminar: Toward a structure theory of disordered matrix product states
DESCRIPTION:In 1992\, Fannes\, Nachtergaele\, and Werner classified translation invariant states on quantum spin chains and discovered that they admit a matrix product structure. Such matrix product states are simultaneously good approximations for general states\, and natural candidates for ground states of specific local Hamiltonians. Following the observation by Vidal (2004) that matrix product states are ‘‘efficient\,’’ the theory took root and is now an indispensable tool in many-body physics and quantum simulation. Recent work in this direction by Movassagh–Schenker (2022) and Nelson–R. (2024) adapted this structure to states generated by disordered matrix products. All such disordered matrix product states are translation co-variant. However both works above only had a ‘‘one-way’’ construction\, not a classification. In this talk\, I’ll report on some work in progress with Jeffrey Schenker where we successfully classify the translation co-variant states when the underlying probability space is a compact Hausdorff space.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Vector-valued robust stochastic control with applications to finance
DESCRIPTION:We study a dynamic stochastic control problem subject to Knightian uncertainty with multi-objective (vector-valued) criteria. Assuming the preferences across expected multi-loss vectors are represented by a given\, yet general\, preorder\, we address the model uncertainty by adopting a robust or minimax perspective\, minimizing expected loss across the worst-case model. In contrast to the scalar case\, major challenges for multi-loss control problems include properly defining and interpreting the notions of supremum and infimum\, and addressing the non-uniqueness of these suprema and infima. To deal with these\, we employ the notion of an ideal point vector-valued supremum for the robust part of the problem\, while we view the control part as a multi-objective (or vector) optimization problem. Using a set-valued framework\, we derive both a weak and strong version of the dynamic programming principle (DPP) or Bellman equations by taking the value function as the collection of all worst expected losses across all feasible actions. The weak version of Bellman's principle is proved under minimal assumptions. To establish a stronger version of DPP\, we introduce the rectangularity property with respect to a general preorder. We also further study a particular\, but important\, case of component-wise partial order of vectors\, for which we additionally derive DPP under a different set-valued notion for the value function\, the so-called upper image of the multi-objective problem. Finally\, we provide illustrative examples motivated by financial problems.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.\n\nTo see photos and read more about exhibited items\, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA\n   \n   The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein\, Solomia Soroka\, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova\, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck\, Michigan.\n   \n   The exhibit opens on September 5\, 2024\, in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact weisercenter@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.\n\n*The exhibition is cosponsored by the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum*.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chimera
DESCRIPTION:*Chimera* is an immersive exhibition centered on a newly commissioned film\, also titled *Chimera*\, which fuses elements from Newsome's prior works *Hands Performance* and *Build or Destroy* with a new interquel film that bridges their narratives. This connecting piece explores the origins and journey of the bejeweled figure in flames from *Build or Destroy*\, revealing where they come from and the purpose that led them to Earth. This exhibition reflects a bold shift in Newsome's practice toward sci-fi filmmaking\, layering the architecture of film\, movement\, and world-building to probe themes of identity\, resistance\, and creation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Red Summer: Racial Violence in the American Landscape\, 1917-1923
DESCRIPTION:The Red Summer portfolio represents the stories of various locations in the American landscape where racial violence (often characterized as “Race Wars” at the time) erupted between 1917 and 1923. These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience\, including\, though not limited to\; racism\, fear of violent black revolt\, lynching\, poverty\, mass incarceration\, and competition for employment. The term “Red Summer” was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919.  \n\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past\; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War\, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era\, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \n\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases\, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past)\, is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Impossible Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Impossible Conversations is an exhibition and film installation by artists and filmmakers\, Pratāp Rughani and David Chung. The film centers a seemingly impossible dialogue between Arno Michaelis\, a former Neo-Nazi gang founder and Pardeep Kaleka\, son of the Sikh Temple President\, Satwant Singh Kaleka\, one of seven people killed in the shooting attack at the Oak Creek Sikh Temple (Gurudwara) by a white supremacist in 2012. \n \nThe film installation explores what happens when – for over a decade – Pardeep and Arno committed to a path of restorative communication - to listen deeply and connect with what motivates each other in the genesis and aftermath of atrocity.\nHow does healing begin? From the toxic polarization\, division and extreme racist violence that resulted in one of the worst mass shootings at a religious site in American history\, Pardeep insists that complete healing must eventually be a collective process for all\, to liberate both sides.\nAt Stamps Gallery\, Impossible Conversations will be accompanied by a dialogue and research room as well as photomurals that expand on the themes of restorative justice\, gun violence\, and how to sustain difficult dialogues to combat extremism and toxic polarization. \nExhibition curated by Srimoyee Mitra. Impossible Conversations has been supported in part by the Arts Research: Incubation &amp\; Acceleration (ARIA) program of The University of Michigan Office of the Vice President Research and the Arts Initiative\, Institute of Firearm Prevention Pilot Grant\, the Stamps School of Art and Design\, and the University of the Arts London. \nExhibition Programs\nAn Opening Screening\, Talkback\, and Reception will take place on Friday\, January 17\, 2025 from 5:30 – 8 p.m.\, and a Symposium will take place on Saturday\, January 18\, 2025 from 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. \nAbout the Artists\nPratāp Rughani is a writer and non-fiction filmmaker. His work develops documentary practice to enable people of radically different perspectives come into relation\, sometimes in the aftermath of violence and atrocity for example in South Africa\, Aboriginal Australia\, Europe\, Rwanda and the USA. Configuring a pro-filmic space to enable shared “witnessing” and the path towards restorative justice is a driving force in “Impossible Conversations” evolving through his practice in over thirty documentary films and exhibitions for BBC TV\, Channel 4\, Modern Art Oxford\, galleries and activist groups. The ethics of giving sustained attention to the experiences of marginalized\, excluded or sometimes reviled “others” and bringing them in relationship to the broader culture is central to his research into ethics of storytelling and the development of “Restorative Narrative.”\nRughani writes widely on the ethics of creative practice\, serves on several editorial Boards\, has won awards for film\, teaching\, and research\, and is Professor of Documentary Practices at the University of the Arts\, London.\nDavid Chung is an acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker. His work focuses on how identities are shaped in immigrant communities and the challenges of refugees as they integrate into new homelands.\nChung has exhibited his drawings\, prints\, and video installations at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts\, the Asia Society\, the Walker Arts Center\, the Studio Museum in Harlem\, the Gwangju Biennale\, the Smithsonian Institution\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Chung has received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and the National Board Film Board of Canada's Award for Best Documentary Film. He was the 2013 Kim Koo Visiting Professor at Harvard University. \nChung is a professor and the director of the MFA Graduate Program at the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Stampede
DESCRIPTION:Born from their passion for the arts\, The Stampede is a student-led organization building a new space for artists. In September 2023\, four undergraduates united with a simple mission: to create a space for showcasing exciting new art work. They established a foundation and worked to build a buzz through outreach and excitement. The Stampede first hosted a pop-up exhibition (party) at a friend's house\, exhibiting 53 pieces of original work\, with food\, drink\, and music\, and a smashing turnout from the local community. They have since evolved\, developed an infrastructure\, and grown into a platform for dynamic art work.\nToday\, The Stampede curates and facilitates exhibitions and events that bring together artists\, writers\, and musicians. From pop-ups and art markets to concerts and gallery shows\, they provide a vibrant platform for creativity for the community. The organization has broken new ground on multiple accounts to pave new ways for artists today and tomorrow\; bridging the divide between student and school. Functioning as an artist collective\, The Stampede focus on creating large-scale artworks\, promotional materials\, and merchandise for their events.\nThis exhibition offers a glimpse behind the scenes of The Stampede: its origins\, current endeavors\, and future aspirations. Since its inception\, The Stampede has continuously surprised with its growth and transformation. Committed to providing opportunities for artists\, they will keep hosting events for their community and friends.\nJoin The Stampede in their journey\; they invite you to... RUN WITH US!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research Talk: Learning the spatial stochastic dynamics of gene expression from static images
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The molecules inside cells operate with behavior dominated by randomness and disorder. Yet\, from these ingredients\, robust life emerges. Understanding this paradox demands new mathematics that bridges mechanistic models that capture molecular-scale stochasticity with statistical approaches for extracting patterns from large-scale\, noisy\, heterogeneous data. This talk presents a case study in bridging these gaps to infer gene expression dynamics from static spatial patterns of mRNA molecules in cells. The approach links spatial point processes for individual molecule locations with tractable solutions to stochastic partial differential equations. This framework combines the strengths of mechanistic insight with the power of modern data science\, enabling discoveries from challenging biological datasets while raising mathematical questions about inference in stochastic systems. I will conclude with future directions in connecting spatial stochastic dynamics with biological data more broadly.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Laughter’s Time\, Media’s Time: Contemporary Comedy in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in room 1010\, Weiser Hall\, and virtually on Zoom. The webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, joining information will be sent to your email. \n\nRegister for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/8rRqG.\n   \nBuilding on his book *The Time of Laughter: Comedy and the Media Cultures of Japan*\, Professor Humphrey examines how comedy and laughter’s timing have shaped media temporality in Japan from the television era to the present. He demonstrates that\, despite fundamental changes in media over the past half-century\, comedy and its laughter have been indelible forces in informing beliefs and debates on media in Japan. Unifying while sowing discord\, drawing in viewers while simultaneously alienating them\, comedy and laughter speak to the inner contradictions of media.\n   \n   David Humphrey is an associate professor of Japanese and global studies at Michigan State University\, where he also serves as director of the Japanese Studies Program. Additionally\, he is an affiliate of the Center for Japanese Studies at U-M. He is the author of *The Time of Laughter: Comedy and the Media Cultures of Japan* (U-M Press\, 2023) and has published numerous articles in journals\, including *the Journal of Japanese Studies\, Media\, Culture & Society\, and AsiaScape*. Currently\, he is working on a second book that examines AI and discourses of media attention in Japan.\n   \n   *This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.*\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cjsevents@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation: from Brain to\nBehaviors\nAbstract:\nLow-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is an emerging technology that enables noninvasive modulation of neuronal activity with unprecedented precision through focused ultrasound waves. Despite its promising applications\, our comprehension of the in-vivo neural mechanisms underlying this novel neuromodulation technology remains in its early stages. Our research endeavors in the lab aim to bridge this knowledge gap\, extending from rodent to nonhuman primate models and humans. In my presentation\, I will introduce some pivotal contributions made by our lab towards understanding the changes of in-vivo neuronal responses\, inter-neuronal correlations\, and brain network modulations elicited by tFUS stimulation. I will showcase our intracranial electrophysiological recordings from rodent and monkey models\, revealing nuanced brain responses to specific stimulation parameters. Furthermore\, we have translated tFUS devices and methodologies for the noninvasive modulation of human motor\, somatosensory\, and visual systems\, measured through electroencephalography (EEG)-based source imaging with improved spatial specificity. Beyond influencing specific brain functions\, I will also present our ongoing investigations into tFUS applications for modulating pain-related behaviors in a humanized sickle cell mouse model and for improving visual-motion responses and human cognitive attention in a brain-computer interface among a group of healthy human participants. These studies not only underscore the versatility of tFUS in neuromodulation but also highlight its therapeutic potential across domains of neurological function and behavior.\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Quantum Eigenvalue(phase) Estimation: From Quantum Data to Classical Signal Processing
DESCRIPTION:Quantum eigenvalue(phase) estimation is one of the most important quantum primitives. While numerous quantum algorithms have been proposed to tackle this problem\, they often demand substantial quantum resources\, making them impractical for early fault-tolerant quantum computers. The talk will begin with a quantum oracle that transforms the quantum eigenvalue estimation problem into a classical signal processing problem. I will then introduce a simple classical subroutine for solving this problem\, which surprisingly achieves state-of-the-art complexity results. Additionally\, I will review the performance of traditional classical algorithms for this problem and share new insights gained from our study. No prior knowledge on quantum computing is required in this talk.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Reaction Networks of Criegee Intermediates Formed in the Ozonolysis of a Series of Acyclic and Endocyclic Alkenes: Influence of Carbon Chain Length and Reactive Environment
DESCRIPTION:The reaction networks that describe the intricate chemical processes involved in atmospheric and combustion systems are typically dominated by reactive intermediates that usually occur in low concentrations. The identification and quantification of these reactive species within complex reactive mixtures are crucial for developing a fundamental\, chemically accurate description of complex atmospheric and combustion systems. Criegee intermediates (CIs)\, carbonyl oxide reactive intermediates formed during the ozonolysis of unsaturated organic compounds\, possess the unique ability to add both carbon and oxygen mass to the co-reactant through either 1\,3-dipolar cycloaddition or insertion mechanisms. These mechanisms can lead to the production of high-molecular-weight\, low-volatility products\, which have been associated with the formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in just a few reaction steps. Their unimolecular decomposition is recognized as a significant source of OH in the atmosphere.\nThe reaction networks of C1 to C7 CIs formed in the ozone-assisted oxidation reaction of a series of C3 to C7 acyclic and endocyclic alkenes were investigated in an atmospheric pressure jet-stirred reactor to elucidate the influence of CIs carbon number and reactive environment on the distribution of products and the formation of high-molecular-weight\, low-volatility compounds. Molecular beam high-resolution mass spectrometry\, tunable synchrotron single-photon ionization\, and ab initio threshold energy calculations were employed for the detection and identification of gas-phase reactive intermediates and final products. Temperature-dependent analysis employing DART ionization-Orbitrap mass spectrometry was utilized to facilitate the detection of high-molecular-weight\, low-volatility reaction products.\nThe ozone-assisted oxidation of acyclic C3 to C7 alkenes was observed to lead to complex CIs reaction networks that encompass both unimolecular and bimolecular reactions. For instance\, formaldehyde oxide CIs were predominantly observed in the ozone-assisted oxidation of 1-propene and 1-butene\, resulting in the formation of products corresponding to sequential CIs additions to co-products such as water\, alkenes\, aldehydes\, alcohols\, and carboxylic acids. However\, oligomerization did not appear to be favored by increasing the CIs carbon number. Notably\, no evidence for the formation of bimolecular products was observed in the case of long-chain CIs formed in the ozone-assisted oxidation of endocyclic alkenes\, specifically C5 to C7 alkenes. Instead\, long-chain CIs were observed to undergo unimolecular decomposition followed by autooxidation.\nThe outcomes of our research represent a significant advancement in understanding the CIs reactive behavior in complex reactive environments where multiple co-reactants are present. This information provides valuable insights for future kinetic modeling endeavors that can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the role and reactivity of CIs in the gas-phase to heterogeneous environments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - 1491s
DESCRIPTION:The 1491s are a dynamic Native American sketch comedy group known for their razor-sharp wit and fearless approach to storytelling. Comprising a collective of Indigenous creators\, including writers\, performers\, and filmmakers\, The 1491s challenge stereotypes and celebrate Native culture through humor\, satire\, and an unflinching lens. Their work spans viral videos\, stage performances\, and contributions to acclaimed television projects\, such as the groundbreaking series Reservation Dogs.\nRooted in their identities and histories\, The 1491s use comedy as a tool for activism and cultural expression\, engaging audiences with narratives that amplify Indigenous voices. Their performances often blend traditional storytelling with contemporary issues\, fostering a greater understanding of Native experiences while sparking joy and laughter.\nTheir first video\, a Twilight parody called New Moon Wolf Pack Auditions\, went viral in 2009\, as have many of their subsequent videos. The 1491s have traveled the country and the world sharing their satirical\, stereotype-busting humor through live performances\, panels\, discussions\, and appearances on major media outlets including The Daily Show on Comedy Central\, Reservation Dogs on FX\, and Dallas Goldtooth’s TikTok. They have also used their talents to address social and legislative issues\, such as the full inclusion of Indigenous women in the Violence Against Women Act.\nFour of the five 1491s members will be in conversation with Eric Ting\, Chinese-American Obie award-winning director. \nDallas Goldtooth (Mdewakanton Dakota/Diné) is a writer\, artist\, actor\, and Dakota language instructor\, known for his roles in Reservation Dogs\, Rutherford Falls\, and Ghosts.\nMigizi Pensoneau (Ponca/Ojibwe) is a writer\, producer\, and cultural consultant with credits on Barkskins\, Rutherford Falls\, and Reservation Dogs.\nRyan RedCorn (Osage Nation) is a graphic artist\, writer\, and actor\, contributing to Reservation Dogs as a writer and performer\, and appearing in Barking Water.\nBobby Wilson (Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota) is an artist and actor\, with work on Rutherford Falls\, Reservation Dogs\, and Spirit Rangers.\nPresented in partnership with the University Musical Society.

SUMMARY:Performance:Caroline Shaw and Gabriel Kahane
DESCRIPTION:Both Caroline Shaw and Gabriel Kahane are respected as performers and contemporary composers whose work exists at the intersection of art and social practice.\n\nNow\, the two embark on their first large-scale collaboration after working together for more than a decade.\n\nThis new work\, co-commissioned by UMS\, is inspired by the magical realism of Argentine author Jorge Luis Borges’s 1939 short story\, “The Library of Babel.” In this enigmatic narrative\, Borges conjures a captivating and perplexing universe where the notion of infinity collides with the fragility of human understanding. Randomly arranged books\, each containing exactly 410 pages\, fill the Library of Babel’s infinite expanse of interlocking hexagonal rooms\, encompassing all knowledge that currently exists or may exist in the future while paradoxically offering no true enlightenment. Shaw and Kahane invite audiences to contemplate the joy\, grief\, wonder\, and bewilderment that spring from a life oversaturated in information.\n\nPROGRAM\nCaroline Shaw and Gabriel Kahane The Library of Babel (UMS Co-Commission)\nAdditional works to be announced

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chimera
DESCRIPTION:*Chimera* is an immersive exhibition centered on a newly commissioned film\, also titled *Chimera*\, which fuses elements from Newsome's prior works *Hands Performance* and *Build or Destroy* with a new interquel film that bridges their narratives. This connecting piece explores the origins and journey of the bejeweled figure in flames from *Build or Destroy*\, revealing where they come from and the purpose that led them to Earth. This exhibition reflects a bold shift in Newsome's practice toward sci-fi filmmaking\, layering the architecture of film\, movement\, and world-building to probe themes of identity\, resistance\, and creation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Red Summer: Racial Violence in the American Landscape\, 1917-1923
DESCRIPTION:The Red Summer portfolio represents the stories of various locations in the American landscape where racial violence (often characterized as “Race Wars” at the time) erupted between 1917 and 1923. These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience\, including\, though not limited to\; racism\, fear of violent black revolt\, lynching\, poverty\, mass incarceration\, and competition for employment. The term “Red Summer” was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919.  \n\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past\; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War\, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era\, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \n\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases\, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past)\, is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CAS Workshop. Becoming and Unbecoming Imperial Subjects: Mobility\, Exclusion\, and (Real/Discursive) Borders
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores the making and unmaking of Ottoman imperial subjecthood\, and its legacy in the post-Ottoman states. It investigates the bureaucratic and legal reforms that enabled to define the Ottoman membership and the limits of belonging. Although the term “imperial citizenship” gained popularity in recent decades\, there are doubts about whether citizenship is suitable for the age of empires\, since imperial subjecthood was based on a rule of difference and exclusion rather than equality. By contextualizing the Ottoman nationality regime within other colonial empires of the late nineteenth century\, the workshop aims to demonstrate how colonial perceptions of governability and malleability informed the question of becoming Ottoman. The late Ottoman governments\, especially under Sultan Abdülhamid II and the Committee of Union and Progress perceived Ottoman nationality as a status that could be granted or revoked based on the perceived loyalty or sedition of various ethnoreligious communities.\n   \n   The workshop integrates the themes of mobility and nationality\, exploring how the management of nationality was intertwined with various forms of mobility\, such as non-Muslim emigration\, Muslim immigration\, pilgrimage\, exile\, and punitive displacement. The Ottoman state's differential treatment of the migrations of diverse ethnoreligious groups created a distinction among its subjects—some enjoyed the freedom to move with state permission\, while others faced forced relocation or restrictions on their mobility. This workshop convenes scholars who investigate how various ethnoreligious communities experienced Ottoman subjecthood across different regions\, including Istanbul\, the Ottoman East\, the Gulf\, Russian borderlands\, and the Balkans. The primary goal is to explore diverse perspectives on subjecthood\, nationality\, and citizenship\, and to assess the inclusivity or exclusivity of Ottoman nationality laws. The workshop aims to illuminate how the bureaucratic methods used to define Ottoman membership were integral to the broader governance strategies employed in the empire's final years.\n   \nWORKSHOP SCHEDULE\n\n9.45-10.00 Welcome & Opening Remarks\nGottfried Hagen & Hazal Özdemir\n\n10.00-11.15 Keynote: Jessica Marglin\, University of Southern California\nReligion and Legal Belonging in the Ottoman Empire: Lessons from the History of Extraterritoriality in the 18th and 19th Centuries\n\n11.15-11.30 Break\n\n11.30-1.30 - 1st panel: Becoming and Unbecoming Imperial Subjects\nDiscussant: Devi Mays (University of Michigan)\; Chair: Julia Phillips Cohen (Vanderbilt University)\n\n• Berke Torunoğlu\, Bilkent University\nCalculated Contradictions: Ottoman-Russian Cooperation on Defining Imperial Subjecthood\, 1858–1864\n\n• Leyla Amzi-Erdogdular\, Rutgers University\nTransimperial Subjects and Interimperial Competition in Habsburg Ottoman Bosnia Herzegovina\n\n• Camile Cole\, Illinois State University\nWhat Did it Mean to be Ottoman in the Gulf\, c. 1900?\n\n• Marie Bossaert\, Université Clermont Auvergne\nThe Contours of Italianity: Italian Citizenship in the Late Ottoman Empire\n\n\n1.30-2.30 Lunch for Workshop Participants\n\n2.30 – 4.15 - 2nd panel: Denationalization from Imperial Decree to Practice\nDiscussant: Melanie Tanielian (University of Michigan)\; Chair: Gottfried Hagen (University of Michigan)\n\n• Hazal Özdemir\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\nThe Price of Ottoman Nationality: How to Renounce Your Subjecthood at the Turn of the Twentieth Century?\n\n• Emmanuel Szurek\, École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales\nEthnic Cleansing via Labor Regulation?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Jake Soloff\, Postdoctoral Research Fellow\, Department of Statistics\, University of Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Algorithmic stability holds when model fitting is insensitive to small changes in the training data. It is often seen as a means to assumption-lean inference\, since it has important implications for generalization\, predictive inference\, and other statistical problems\, without requiring distributional assumptions on the data. To reap these benefits\, we should not leave stability as yet-another questionable assumption\, but we also should not restrict ourselves to using a handful of specific\, mathematically tractable algorithms that have been shown to be stable. In this talk\, we establish that bagging—averaging models trained on random subsets of data—automatically stabilizes any black-box algorithm\, with finite-sample guarantees controlled by the fraction of samples used in each subset. These results extend beyond prediction to any statistical method with outputs in a Hilbert space\, and to classification through a new 'inflated argmax' that adapts to model uncertainty. \n\nThis talk is based on joint work with Rina Foygel Barber and Rebecca Willett.\n\nhttps://jake-soloff.github.io/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Impossible Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Impossible Conversations is an exhibition and film installation by artists and filmmakers\, Pratāp Rughani and David Chung. The film centers a seemingly impossible dialogue between Arno Michaelis\, a former Neo-Nazi gang founder and Pardeep Kaleka\, son of the Sikh Temple President\, Satwant Singh Kaleka\, one of seven people killed in the shooting attack at the Oak Creek Sikh Temple (Gurudwara) by a white supremacist in 2012. \n \nThe film installation explores what happens when – for over a decade – Pardeep and Arno committed to a path of restorative communication - to listen deeply and connect with what motivates each other in the genesis and aftermath of atrocity.\nHow does healing begin? From the toxic polarization\, division and extreme racist violence that resulted in one of the worst mass shootings at a religious site in American history\, Pardeep insists that complete healing must eventually be a collective process for all\, to liberate both sides.\nAt Stamps Gallery\, Impossible Conversations will be accompanied by a dialogue and research room as well as photomurals that expand on the themes of restorative justice\, gun violence\, and how to sustain difficult dialogues to combat extremism and toxic polarization. \nExhibition curated by Srimoyee Mitra. Impossible Conversations has been supported in part by the Arts Research: Incubation &amp\; Acceleration (ARIA) program of The University of Michigan Office of the Vice President Research and the Arts Initiative\, Institute of Firearm Prevention Pilot Grant\, the Stamps School of Art and Design\, and the University of the Arts London. \nExhibition Programs\nAn Opening Screening\, Talkback\, and Reception will take place on Friday\, January 17\, 2025 from 5:30 – 8 p.m.\, and a Symposium will take place on Saturday\, January 18\, 2025 from 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. \nAbout the Artists\nPratāp Rughani is a writer and non-fiction filmmaker. His work develops documentary practice to enable people of radically different perspectives come into relation\, sometimes in the aftermath of violence and atrocity for example in South Africa\, Aboriginal Australia\, Europe\, Rwanda and the USA. Configuring a pro-filmic space to enable shared “witnessing” and the path towards restorative justice is a driving force in “Impossible Conversations” evolving through his practice in over thirty documentary films and exhibitions for BBC TV\, Channel 4\, Modern Art Oxford\, galleries and activist groups. The ethics of giving sustained attention to the experiences of marginalized\, excluded or sometimes reviled “others” and bringing them in relationship to the broader culture is central to his research into ethics of storytelling and the development of “Restorative Narrative.”\nRughani writes widely on the ethics of creative practice\, serves on several editorial Boards\, has won awards for film\, teaching\, and research\, and is Professor of Documentary Practices at the University of the Arts\, London.\nDavid Chung is an acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker. His work focuses on how identities are shaped in immigrant communities and the challenges of refugees as they integrate into new homelands.\nChung has exhibited his drawings\, prints\, and video installations at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts\, the Asia Society\, the Walker Arts Center\, the Studio Museum in Harlem\, the Gwangju Biennale\, the Smithsonian Institution\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Chung has received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and the National Board Film Board of Canada's Award for Best Documentary Film. He was the 2013 Kim Koo Visiting Professor at Harvard University. \nChung is a professor and the director of the MFA Graduate Program at the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Stampede
DESCRIPTION:Born from their passion for the arts\, The Stampede is a student-led organization building a new space for artists. In September 2023\, four undergraduates united with a simple mission: to create a space for showcasing exciting new art work. They established a foundation and worked to build a buzz through outreach and excitement. The Stampede first hosted a pop-up exhibition (party) at a friend's house\, exhibiting 53 pieces of original work\, with food\, drink\, and music\, and a smashing turnout from the local community. They have since evolved\, developed an infrastructure\, and grown into a platform for dynamic art work.\nToday\, The Stampede curates and facilitates exhibitions and events that bring together artists\, writers\, and musicians. From pop-ups and art markets to concerts and gallery shows\, they provide a vibrant platform for creativity for the community. The organization has broken new ground on multiple accounts to pave new ways for artists today and tomorrow\; bridging the divide between student and school. Functioning as an artist collective\, The Stampede focus on creating large-scale artworks\, promotional materials\, and merchandise for their events.\nThis exhibition offers a glimpse behind the scenes of The Stampede: its origins\, current endeavors\, and future aspirations. Since its inception\, The Stampede has continuously surprised with its growth and transformation. Committed to providing opportunities for artists\, they will keep hosting events for their community and friends.\nJoin The Stampede in their journey\; they invite you to... RUN WITH US!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Museum Studies Program\, Museums at Noon
DESCRIPTION:Natural history museums occupy a unique space in the world of museology\, often facing challenges from both a humanities and scientific perspective. Much of their controversy stems from the very fact that the primary “items” stored and displayed in these museums were once living organisms. Because most natural history museums are associated with large research collections and universities\, they often house thousands (if not millions) of specimens. Tasked with the burden of accurately representing biodiversity\, history\, climate\, evolution\, and humanity’s role in all of these\, natural history collections are continuously undergoing physical and organizational changes to meet these ever-changing fields. \n\nHowever\, the wealth of knowledge and recent advances in museum-based scientific techniques (CT-scanning\, museomics\, etc.) provide a world of inspiring and innovative new ways to use these collections. These methods are especially important when examining historically-significant and rare museum specimens\, as each organism in these collections represent a unique snapshot of a place and time that cannot be replicated. \n\nIn this talk\, Hayley Crowell ((PhD Candidate\, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology) will use the Natural History Museum of Denmark as a case study to discuss these issues from both a historic and modern perspective\, starting from its early origins as one of Europe’s first Kunstkammer (“Cabinet of Curiosities”) to its current role as a leading research institute in Europe. Along the way\, I will also share a series of anecdotes about the bizarre and surprising adventures that come with working in an early zoological collection.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Culturally Wise Interventions and Their Influence on Meaning Making and Behavior Across Diverse Cultural Contexts
DESCRIPTION:People are enculturated actors\, shaped by their sociocultural and socioecological contexts. A vast empirical literature has documented that\, in the Global North contexts that afford greater choice and material abundance\, people tend to see themselves as more independent than interdependent actors and to be more motivated by personal interests and autonomy over social norms and obligations. However\, the literature on self\, motivation\, and behavior suffers from glaring gaps in low resource Global South contexts. An agenda on ‘culturally wise’ interventions seeks to fill this gap by experimentally comparing different culturally grounded behavioral science approaches across diverse contexts. Building on theoretical principles of wise interventions (Walton & Wilson\, 2018) and culture match (e.g.\, Markus\, 2016\; Stephens et al.\, 2012)\, culturally wise interventions are attuned to how culturally specific models of self\, motivation\, and relationality can exert powerful effects on meaning making and behavior. In this talk\, I will define “culturally wise interventions” and their theoretical foundations. I then show experimental tests of culturally wise interventions in the lab in Kenya (N=565) and the field in Niger (N=4\,712\, N=2\,628) and illustrate how these interventions can be leveraged to address complex social issues\, including mitigating poverty and inequality. Through experimental evaluations of such intervention approaches in understudied contexts\, this research agenda seeks to advance a more comprehensive account of human behavior as well as strategies for promoting psychological\, social\, and economic well-being around the globe.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Biological Anthropology Colloquium | “Bipedalism in Two Steps: Dual Innovations Underlie Hominin Pelvic Biology”
DESCRIPTION:“This talk will focus on how humans acquired bipedalism via changes in the development of their pelves. At the crux of human bipedalism and childbirth is the ilium\, which evolved to be shorter\, broader\, and parasagittally curved\, compared to cranio-caudally tall\, coronally-oriented ilia of other apes. The evolutionary genetic mechanisms that generated this unique iliac form remain unknown. Here\, using histological\, morphological\, comparative genomic and functional genomic approaches on ethically collected human samples and museum-collected prenatal primates\, we reveal that underlying this human iliac shape are two key developmental shifts. First\, the human iliac growth plate underwent a spatial shift in orientation\, residing perpendicular to that present in all other primate and mouse ilia. Using molecular methods\, we discovered human accelerated sequence changes in numerous molecular pathways\, permitting undifferentiated iliac skeletal cells to shift the direction of their outgrowth. Second\, the human ilium experienced a timing shift in bone ossification unlike that observed for human long-bones\, or in non-human primate ilia and long-bones. Human iliac ossification initiates at the posterior border\, then radiates anteriorly\, but remains external with external cells contributing initially to the production of bone. Compared to chimpanzees and other primates\, humans delayed internal ossification of the ilium compared to other long bones. Underlying this shift are regulatory changes in other molecular pathways. The consequence of these shifts is a human pelvis that can grow\, permit proper muscle orientation and function\, all-the-while retaining its complex unique human shape for walking and birthing functions later in life.”\n\nTerence D. Capellini is a Professor of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University. His undergraduate education was at Binghamton University\, where he was an Anthropology major focusing on human skeleton evolution. This was followed by his Masters Degree research at Kent State University\, where he studied archaeological assemblage formation\, and human skeletal evolution. He acquired his MPhil and Ph.D from the New York Consortium in Evolutionary Primatology (C.U.N.Y) working in the laboratory of Licia Selleri (Weill Cornell Medicine) on the development of the skeleton\, and then performed his post-doctoral research in the laboratory of David Kingsley (Stanford University) on the genetics of skeletal evolution. His interdisciplinary lab at Harvard bridges functional genomics and genetics\, developmental biology\, medical genetics\, and paleoanthropology. His lab is currently focusing on how gene regulation shapes different bones of the human skeleton\, how interbreeding with Neandertals facilitated human skeletal adaptations\, and how alterations to gene regulation during human evolution have not only facilitated skeletal adaptations but influenced the modern world-wide risk of bone diseases\, such as joint-specific osteoarthritis.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Classical Speakers Colloquium: Marko Malink (NYU)
DESCRIPTION:Location: 2306 Mason Hall\nTitle: The Metaphysical Basis of Aristotle's Logic\nAbstract: According to Bertrand Russell\, the first serious advance in logic since the time of the Greeks was made by Frege\, when he argued that the propositions 'Socrates is mortal' and 'All humans are mortal' are not of the same logical form. Aristotle\, by contrast\, took these propositions to be of the same logical form. In his view\, both are simple categorical propositions in which one being is predicated of another being\, universal or particular. I shall argue that Aristotle adopted this view because he thought that it provides a metaphysically perspicuous representation of the structure of beings underlying a science. Thus\, while his system of categorical logic does not possess the deductive and expressive power of Frege's system\, it is well suited for representing what Aristotle took to be explanatory scientific demonstrations.\n\nMarko Malink is Professor of Philosophy & Classics. He received an M. A. from the University of Leipzig (2004)\, where he studied Logic and Ancient Greek. He earned a Dr. Phil. in Philosophy from Humboldt University of Berlin (2008). His primary area of research is ancient philosophy\, especially ancient logic and metaphysics. Malink also has interests in the history of logic\, philosophy of language\, and linguistics. His book Aristotle’s Modal Syllogistic was published by Harvard University Press in 2013. Some of his articles were selected for inclusion in The Philosopher's Annual\, which aims to collect the ten best articles published in philosophy each year (2013\, 2016\, 2018). Prior to joining the Faculty at NYU in 2014\, Malink has held positions at Humboldt University of Berlin and the University of Chicago.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Forbidden 0-1 patterns and the Pach-Tardos conjecture -- Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:This talk will survey the extremal theory of pattern-avoiding 0-1 matrices and some of their applications in geometry and algorithms.  If P is a 0-1 matrix\, Ex(P\,n) is the maximum number of 1s in an n x n 0-1 matrix that does not contain any submatrix that dominates P.  Every 0-1 pattern P can be regarded as the incidence matrix of a bipartite graph\, in which the two sides of the bipartition are ordered.  Thus\, this definition can be seen as a generalization of the Turan extremal function (for subgraph avoidance).\n\nPattern-avoiding 0-1 matrices have been studied since the late 1980s\, and yet the precise relationship between 0-1 matrices and Turan theory is still poorly understood.  For many years the foremost open problem has been to characterize the extremal functions of acyclic patterns (those whose graphs correspond to forests).  In 2005 Pach and Tardos conjectured that Ex(P\,n) = O(n polylog(n)) for any acyclic P.  We give a simple refutation of the Pach-Tardos conjecture by giving a class of acyclic patterns for which Ex(P\,n) > n 2^{sqrt{log n}}.\n\nJoint work with Gábor Tardos.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:No God but Man: On Race\, Knowledge and Terrorism
DESCRIPTION:Reconceptualizing the relationship between race and Islam in the United States\, No God but Man theorizes race as an epistemology using the FBI’s post-9/11 Most Wanted Terrorist list and its posters as its starting point. Atiya Husain traces the origins of the FBI wanted poster form to the work of nineteenth-century social scientist Adolphe Quetelet\, specifically his overvalued type of human called “average man.” Husain argues that this notion of the human continues to structure wanted posters\, as well as much contemporary social scientific thinking about race. Focusing on the curious representations on the Most\nWanted Terrorist list that range from Muslims who lack a race category on their posters to the 2013 addition of Black revolutionary Assata Shakur\, Husain demonstrates the ongoing influence of the average man and its relevance even today\, proposing a counterweight to the category by engaging Shakur’s turn to Islam in the 1970s in the legal context. In doing so\, Husain shows the limitations of race as an analytical category altogether.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Strength of Polynomials
DESCRIPTION:Let F be a homogeneous polynomial defining a projective hypersurface X over a field K. The strength of F is equal to the minimum number r such that F = G_1 + ... + G_r\, where G_i are reducible homogeneous polynomials. This invariant captures remarkable geometric properties of X. For example\, when K is algebraically-closed\, the strength of F bounds the codimension of the singular locus of X. This invariant is also studied in the context of number theory and additive combinatorics\; we will discuss these contexts in addition to connections to recent developments in geometry.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Thomas R. Trautmann Honorary Lecture | Elephants and Ecology - Expanding the Parameters of Trautmann’s Land Ethic
DESCRIPTION:*A New Yorker “Best Book of 2024” Selection*\n\n*“Mr. Olivelle has produced an outstanding monument of scholarship and sound judgment.”—Maxwell Carter\, Wall Street Journal*\n\nAttend via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/3QbbD\n\nWhy are there no elephants in China? And\, by way of contrast\, why have there been and continue to be large numbers of elephants in the Indian subcontinent across its geography and throughout its recorded history? Why are these two largest countries of Asia so different in their attitudes towards the elephant? These questions are addressed in Thomas Trautmann’s groundbreaking masterpiece Elephants and Kings: An Environmental History. Trautmann introduces the concept of ‘land ethic’ in his explanation of the divergent ecological histories of the two countries. Olivelle's paper is a small contribution to furthering our understanding of the Indian land ethic\, expanding on Trautmann’s definition focused on the Indian war elephant and the establishment of elephant forests. The paper presents four further facets of the land ethic: economic\, recreational\, religious\, and aesthetic.\n   \n   Patrick Olivelle was the chair of Religious Studies at Indiana University\, Bloomington\, and of Asian Studies at the University of Texas\, where he is currently Professor Emeritus. He also was the past President of the American Oriental Society and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He received the honorary doctorate of Humane Letters from the University of Chicago in 2016 and the Guggenheim Fellowship in 1996. His recent book Ashoka: Portrait of a Philosopher King was included in The New Yorker’s The Best Books of 2024.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY  SEMINAR:  Curve graphs and totally geodesic subvarieties of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces
DESCRIPTION:Given a surface\, the associated curve graph has vertices corresponding to certain isotopy classes of curves on the surface\, and edges for disjoint curves. Starting with work of Masur and Minsky in the late 1990s\, curve graphs became a central tool for understanding objects in low dimensional topology and geometry. Since then\, their influence has reached far beyond what might have been anticipated. Part of the talk will be an expository account of this remarkable story.\n\nMuch more recently\, non-trivial examples of totally geodesic subvarieties of moduli spaces have been discovered\, in work of McMullen-Mukamel-Wright and Eskin-McMullen-Mukamel-Wright. Part of the talk will be an expository account of this story and its connections to dynamics.\n\nThe talk will conclude with new joint work with Francisco Arana-Herrera showing that the geometry of totally geodesic subvarieties can be understood using curve graphs\, and that this is closely intertwined with the remarkably rigid structure of these varieties witnessed by the boundary in the Deligne-Mumford compactification.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explore humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art\, in various mediums\, since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\n\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.
